The Short Answer: Viviscal PRO typically yields visible results within 3 to 6 months of consistent, twice-daily usage. Because hair grows slowly (approx. 0.5 inches per month), the nutrients need time to build up in the follicle. Most users report stronger nails in Month 1, reduced shedding in Month 3, and visible thickening/regrowth by Month 6.
The Realistic Timeline
Hair growth is a biological process that cannot be rushed. Here is the standard progression for Viviscal PRO users:
| Month | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| 1-2 | Nutrients accumulate. Nails grow faster/harder. Little scalp change. |
| 3-4 | Reduced Shedding. Less hair in the shower drain. Fine "baby hairs" may appear. |
| 5-6+ | Visible Density. Hair shaft diameter increases. Scalp coverage improves. |
Commitment Hack: Since results take 3+ months, buying a single box often leads to quitting too early. We recommend the 3-Month Supply Bundle to ensure you stick with the protocol long enough to see the "Shedding Reduction" phase.
Common Timeline Questions
What happens if I stop taking it?
If you stop, the benefits will gradually diminish. [cite_start]Since Viviscal supplies the "food" your follicles need to stay in the growth phase, removing that food supply will cause your hair to eventually return to its previous shedding cycle.
Does it work faster for men or women?
The biological mechanism is the same for both. However, men with aggressive genetic balding may see results more slowly than women dealing with diet-related thinning, as genetic factors are harder to overcome.
